Lupe Tortilla – a restaurant with roots in Texas and a
reputation for serving handcrafted, high-quality Texas-Mex cuisine in a
welcoming atmosphere. Established in 1983 in a modest 1940s-frame house in
Houston, it quickly became a local favorite. Lupe Tortilla has stayed true
to its standards—only fresh ingredients, scratch-made recipes, and cozy but
evolving atmosphere. Lupe Tortilla’s menu is made of Tex-Mex tradition, crafted
with authenticity. The attention to detail doesn’t stop there: limes are hand-squeezed,
the famous lime-pepper-marinated fajitas are renowned, and their signature
margaritas are made to order with fresh squeezed juices and premium
tequilas.
Regional Tex-Mex chain known for its homemade tortillas & variety of margaritas.

The chilaquiles were quite disappointing; they were mostly crumbs and not worth the price for something so small that it fits in the palm of your hands. The barbacoa taco was only notable for its tortilla, as the barbacoa resembled pulled pork more than anything else. However, I appreciated the atmosphere; it’s a pleasant spot for drinks and appetizers. The server was exceptional, consistently ensuring our drinks were full and being very attentive.
Update: 8-6-2025 This is our second visit to this restaurant, and it exceeded our expectations. Initially, we had a less-than-stellar experience, but this time, the cook truly delivered. I ordered the beef fajitas burrito, which was incredibly flavorful. Paired with a side of rice and beans, it was a satisfying meal that left me pleasantly drowsy afterward. My wife order a Trio which came with fajitas, chicken and shrimp which she thoroughly enjoyed. It was served with some rice and beans and a couple of very large homemade flour tortillas that were delicious. She was definitely pleased. The service matched the quality of the food, remaining outstanding throughout our visit. The atmosphere was also enjoyable, enhancing the overall dining experience.

We had a fantastic experience at Lupe Tortilla, and a big part of that was thanks to our server, Robert. He went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable from the moment we sat down. His attention to detail, professionalism, and friendly attitude truly stood out.
It’s rare to find someone who not only provides great service but also elevates the entire dining experience with such wonderful personality—Robert is absolutely an example to follow in customer service.
Highly recommend dining here, and if you can, ask for Robert!

We arrived and were told by the hostess at the front door that the wait would be about 10 minutes. We provided our phone number for the text notification, but after 30 minutes with no update, we checked back. She claimed she had texted us (she hadn’t) she’d walked past us multiple times without a word.
This level of disorganization and poor customer service is unacceptable. Please replace this hostess with someone who can manage basic communication and treat waiting customers right . A terrible first impression that soured the entire visit.

The food was very good. Tortillas a little dry but still enjoyed my fajitas. First time that I have not had grilled peppers in. The steak and chicken very well seasoned. The shrimp wasn’t so great. The beans and salsa served with chips are very spicy. They did bring out some that weren’t. The overall flavor was delicious! The atmosphere was extremely loud from a large table but they accommodated us and we moved. Will go back again.

This Tex-Mex restaurant offers a great atmosphere, and the staff are friendly and attentive. The place is comfortable and quiet—perfect for having a conversation with friends. To be honest, the food wasn’t amazing, but it wasn’t bad either; there’s definitely room for improvement. Still, I’d recommend it if you’re looking to enjoy a decent Tex-Mex meal in a relaxed setting.

First time here service was good food was decent at best. . But honestly not worth what you pay for a lb of beef fajitas might as well just buy the meat and cook it yourself. . .for 65/lb

We visited this location to celebrate my mother’s birthday. The service and food were great. We were a party of 11. The restaurant was very accommodating since we requested to sit outside on a beautiful Sunday. Angie was our server, and she was fantastic! We’ll definitely go back to this location when we go back to Houston. I had the Barbacoa tacos
